New At SU November Blog Hop Happy Holidays

Welcome to the New At SU November Blog Hop and this month our theme is Happy Holidays. Our team of creative Stampin' Up! Demonstrators will be sharing their creative ideas and projects to help inspire you to create you own wonderful projects for the holidays to share with family and friends. 
Today I thought I would share a clean and simple Christmas card featuring the Christmas Means More stamp set (item #154730) combined with the Tis The Season 6"x6" Designer Series Paper (item #153489) from the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog. I love the old fashioned traditional feel of the patterns in this designer series paper and how well the designs coordinate with this fun stamp set. The beautiful big sentiments are great as a focal point for creating simple Christmas cards that have a Wow factor.

This card design is easy to create and assemble and would be wonderful for creating multiple cards and you can use different sentiments from the Christmas Means More stamp set and different patterns from the Tis The Season 6"x6" Designer Series Paper to add variety to your cards. I love how the Silver Embossing steps up this card design and I added a touch of color by coloring in the bells with the Light Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blends Marker and the Dark Just Jade Stampin' Blends Marker. To emboss the Garden Green cardstock layer, I embossed one half of the cardstock and then embossed the other half, matching up the embossing so that the join doesn't show. The great thing is that it is covered up by the decorative strip so it really isn't noticeable. I embellished the card design by coloring a piece of the Snowflake Splendor Ribbon with the Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blends Marker and then tied a bow with it. I added it to the base of the sentiment circle with a Mini Stampin' Dimensional. I love the old fashioned look of this Christmas card and the sentiment is one that people will readily recognize and is sure to make them smile.
